In Germany, the modern German health care system can only be understood in light of its nation’s history starting with the industrialization of the country. From that time, mandatory health insurance on a national level was introduced in 1883. This also resulted into social conflicts that led up till the national-socialist period in 1933 to 1945. After the World War II, the country was divided into two separate German states and later reunited as one in 1990.
